[Bug 56731] Gaim crashed when I connect to MSN (only)

[Anders]

Public bug reported:

I can connect Gaim to irc, AIM etc without any problem; however when I
connect to (manually and/or 'autologin' to MSN, the application
systematically crashed.

Obtained a backtrace as suggested at: 
http://gaim.sourceforge.net/gdb.php

and it looks like this:

---Type <return> to continue, or q <return> to quit---
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
